Embodiment 2

[0047] Embodiment 2 The using method of kit of the present invention

[0048] 1. DNA extraction

[0049] The paraffin blocks of UM patients were extracted and sliced, 5-10 μm thick, 5-6 slices. Use a scalpel to scrape off the tumor tissue on the section, try to scrape only the target tissue part, and remove excess paraffin. Collect the scraped tissue into a 1.5mL EP tube, add 1mL xylene and shake to mix well. After fully dissolving the paraffin, centrifuge at 12000rpm for 2min at room temperature, and discard the supernatant. Add 1ml of absolute ethanol, shake and mix well, centrifuge at 12000rpm for 2min at room temperature, and discard the supernatant. Open the tube cap and dry at room temperature or 37°C for 5-10 minutes to completely remove residual ethanol. Add 200 μl lysis solution and 20 μl Proteinase K, mix thoroughly, and incubate at 55°C until the sample is completely lysed. Place in a 90°C water bath and incubate for 1 hour, add 200 μl of buffer solution and 200...

[0069] Experimental example 1 Relationship between UM transfer and p.E725K mutation

[0070] 1. Selection of Experimental Subjects

[0071] From 2009 to 2017, West China Hospital of Sichuan University collected 85 primary UM patients, among which 19 cases had UM cell metastasis within 5 years of illness, and 66 cases had no UM cell metastasis within 5 years of illness. The rate is 22.35%. The specific clinical case parameters are shown in Table 7.

[0074] 2. Sequencing

[0075] Using the method in Example 2, the p.E725K mutation site of the EZH2 gene of the subject was sequenced.

[0076] 3. Sequencing results

[0077] The results showed that the p.E725K mutation site existed in the EZH2 gene of the experimental subjects, and the mutation rate was 41.2% (35 / 85). Among the patients with UM cell metastasis within 5 years of illness, 13 cases carried the p.E725K mutation (transfer The total numbe...

Abstract

The invention provides a novel uveal melanoma metastasis risk prediction kit, and belongs to the field of disease molecular diagnosis kits. According to the kit, a relationship between a p.E725K mutation site of an EZH2 gene and uveal melanoma metastasis is elaborated; and the novel kit is provided, wherein the kit realizes effective prediction of the uveal melanoma metastasis risk by virtue of detection of the p.E725K mutation site of the EZH2 gene, and the kit has a good application prospect.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of disease molecular diagnosis kits. Background technique [0002] Uveal melanoma (uveal melanoma, UM) is the most common primary intraocular malignant tumor in adults. . The degree of malignancy is high and the prognosis is poor. Not only can it lead to loss of vision, but also distant metastasis to the liver, lungs and other parts, which seriously threatens the life of the patient. The 10-year disease-related survival rate is only 50%. [0003] In the past 30 years, the diagnosis and treatment of UM have made significant progress. The DecisionDx-UM test can classify UM patients into Class 1 (low risk of metastasis) and Class 2 (high risk of metastasis). The main treatment methods for UM are short-distance patch radiotherapy, laser therapy, local excision and enucleation, etc., but the 5-year survival rate of patients has not improved yet. The reason is that even if the local treatment is successful, 50% of the pa...
